Salah fuelled transfer speculation after targeting Arne Slot and the Reds for being “thrown under the bus” amid the club’s poor run of form. The Dutch boss responded to the Egyptian’s explosive outburst by dropping him from Liverpool ’s squad for the team’s 1–0 victory over Inter in the Champions League.

Liverpool coach Arne Slot says he will have talks with Mohamed Salah imminently after the forward’s explosive outburst last week threw his Anfield future into doubt.

Mohamed Salah is not only in the argument of being Liverpool’s greatest player of all time, but he’s also been one of the best in the world over the last decade. So why have things turned so sour?

Seven days earlier, Liverpool’s talisman had threatened to dismantle his illustrious history on Merseyside with a public tirade against the club and his manager. Slot dropped Salah for Tuesday’s trip to Milan before bringing him back into the fold following a heart-to-heart on Friday.

Salah's 277 goal involvements (188 goals, 89 assists) for Liverpool meant he moved above former Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney (183 goals, 93 assists) in the standings. Liverpool parted with £34m to sign Salah from Roma in 2017 - a fee that now seems like peanuts after his jaw-dropping 364 goal contributions in 421 club appearances in all competitions (250 goals and 114 assists).
